PERE MARQUETTE TOWNSHIP — Mercy Health formally broke ground Friday morning on a $3.9 million, 15,000-square-foot health care facility at the northwest corner of Jebavy Drive and U.S. 10. The facilty is slated to open in June 2016.

“I’m proud to be part of this project,” said  Jay Bryan, president & CEO, Mercy Health-Lakeshore Campus.

The facility will house the Mercy Health Physician Partners Sable Point Family Care and is designed for six health care providers and will offer primary care services, lab, imaging, rehabilitation, behavioral health, occupational medicine, specialty clinics and urgent care. It will also house the current cardiology clinic, which has been serving the Ludington region for more than 30 years.

The facility’s design was developed by Mercy Health staff, including physicians, nurses and support staff, and patients, who collaborated with the developer and architect to ensure that the new office is patient focused.
